The Auto Setup instructions
require the monitor to be warmed
up for 15 minutes. This is not
required for normal operation.
By pressing the
key, you will
have direct access to the Image
Setup control that is used during
the Auto Setup process.
When you first use your monitor you must perform Auto Setup. This
procedure sets up your monitor to process the video signals from your
computer without image discoloration or smearing. After you perform Auto
Setup, the settings are stored and used each time you turn on the monitor.
To optimise the displayed image a set-up utility is provided on the CD.
Operation of the utility is dependent on the operating system on your
computer. For correct operation locate the operating system on your
computer from the table below and follow the appropriate instructions. You
can choose to run AUTO SETUP for each operating system that you use. This
means that if you sometimes use your monitor while running any version of
Windows and sometimes also use it from within DOS (not a DOS window),
you must run AUTO SETUP for both Windows and DOS. You can run versions of
AUTO SETUP in any order.

The display mode the monitor uses is controlled by the computer. Therefore,
refer to your computer documentation for details on how to change display
modes.
The image size, position and shape might change when the display mode
changes. This is normal and the image can be readjusted using AUTO SETUP
and the monitor controls.
Unlike CRT monitors, which require a high refresh rate to minimize flicker,
TFT technology is inherently flicker-free. If possible, configure your computer
for 1280 × 1024 addressability at 60Hz vertical refresh rate.
